(I have not found yet the semantics document, I am not sure whether what I write makes sense...)
Looking at the Prov-o and the qualified terms. Taking the first time in the list, ie, qualifiedUsage. Isn't it correct that, at least conceptually, if I have
ex:E a prov:Entity;
prov:qualifiedUsage [
a prov:Usage ;
prov:entity ex:E
] .
then, again conceptually, I would expect something like
ex:E prov:used ex:E .
to be 'present'. It strikes me that this is exactly what the OWL 2 property chains do (and those are still OWL RL), by saying:
(prov:qualifiedUsage prov:entity) rdfs:subPropertyOf prov:used .
Isn't it worth adding it to the OWL ontology? Or do I miss something here?
